About Gladys

Gladys Hollis is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas who welcomes clients motivated to make change and ready to engage in the work of healing.

Background and approach

She draws on six years of counseling experience and a background in education and school counseling to tailor sessions to each person’s needs, focusing on patterns that link past experiences to present challenges. Her aim is to address underlying causes rather than only easing symptoms, supporting clients toward greater self-awareness and resilience.

In sessions she blends several therapeutic approaches to meet clients where they are, using tools from Internal Family Systems, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as appropriate.

She offers care for a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, trauma, grief, relationship and family issues, ADHD, parenting challenges, career questions, and compassion fatigue. Gladys emphasizes a warm, nonjudgmental collaborative relationship that encourages growth, insight, and practical steps toward lasting change.

How therapeutic approaches come alive online

Internal Family Systems (IFS) frames emotional difficulties as parts of the self with different roles and needs; therapy helps clients notice, relate to, and unblend from those parts so the core Self can lead, which can be useful for addressing trauma, anxiety, and internal conflict. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on values-guided action and learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings rather than getting stuck in them; it often helps with stress, depression, and situations that require new behavioral patterns. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationship patterns shape current connections and emotional responses, supporting people who want to improve closeness, trust, or conflict patterns.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work. Gladys collaborates with each client to determine which methods fit their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, and she adapts techniques as progress unfolds to support practical change and increased self-understanding.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for busy schedules and for clients who prefer remote care. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity between sessions, integrate therapeutic exercises into daily life, and access consistent support from a licensed professional regardless of local travel constraints.
